Grand Canyon South Rim

The Colorado River carved it. The rest is scale no photograph has ever handled honestly. Grand Canyon National Park covers more than 1.2 million acres of northwestern Arizona, and the South Rim — the park's most visited section — draws millions of visitors annually, more than 4.7 million in 2023 alone. Flagstaff, 90 minutes away, is the closest city with reliable air service. The canyon is the reason the city exists the way it does; tourism built Flagstaff, and this is what the tourists come for.
